Happy Thanksgiving!

Hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving. Last night Chris mentioned that if we left the house right then, we could make it to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade in NYC by morning. We decided to stay ; ) That would be fun to see next year though. We bummed around cooking and relaxing today. The kids enjoyed watching the Macy's Thanksgiving parade and we had fun spotting the shorthair pointer in the dog show right after. We had fun decorating the table with leaves from out back. We are now stuffed to the brim and ready for naps. The dogs were very thankful for the "turkey organs". We got them an early Christmas present with a new invisible fence. Chris got it all installed and the dogs are much happier now. They learned real quick to stay away from the flags. We are thankful for so many blessings that we enjoy from our Father in Heaven. We miss all our family so far away but we are so well taken care of amidst our trials. May we all be a light on a hill this holiday season. Bon Apetit!

What a beautiful table of food. Looks like it could be from a magazine.
Hope you had a good one. We spent thanksgiving with Brian's extended family in Gilbert. #8 people in a 1300 sq.foot house. After I ate I went up to take a break from all the noise. When I came back down half were gone and it was more comfortable. We love and miss you very much.

I love the way you guys capture the season with your family...whatever the season. I loved the table leaf decorations and the fun that it looks like you always have together. I love watching how you help your children capture the JOY of life. Thanks!
